Memebox: Korean Beauty Box Service

[cfisher]

@@Krysten Lowe Yeah, I'm not too worried about the ingredients from what I read. It's just hard to justify buying such things when I'm drowning in great products, and can't seem to find any information/reviews on it. But $20 for a "$100+" item...I mean, it's the fiscally responsible thing to do if it's a great product?

...Right?!  :lol:

And....Now for the 2 hour countdown for tonight's Memenews. Here's hoping they give us something good.

@@cfisher, yup. I used it tonight but obviously will take some time to see how it works. It's got a really light fresh scent to it, like a super light fresh laundry smell almost and it's really watery, not quite a toner consistency but not a serum either. The listed ingredients are oryzanol, Nicotinoyl, tripeptide-1, Nelumbo Nucifera Callus Culture Extract. I'm gonna look into these ingredients tonight. The ingredients list in korean isn't super long either. Wish I could read korean, lol!

Here's what I found for the main ingredients (urgh--I hate when the full list isn't given grr): Purified water, glycerin, oryzanol, nicotinoyl tripeptide-1, callus cultures lotus extract, Sodium hyaluronidase, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Green Tea Extract, Betaine, allantoin, sodium citrate, tocopheryl acetate, citric acid, disodium Heidi tieyi, Butylene Glycol, gold extract, Ethyl hexyl glycerin, glyceryl acrylate rilka ruffle, 1,2-hexanediol, phenoxyethanol, fragrance. Lazy translation based on this page plus google translate.

The only other place I see that product is on Qoo10 for 114.00, and a youtube vid. I figure it was only 21.00, it's probably worth at least that...hopefully it's good but not so good I want it again! It's my fear of finding an HG that's super pricey! I did that once with Sisley and a 300.00 face oil, never again, ha!

 

[Krystyn Lowe]

Thanks @!

Edit: those illustrations made me lol! Also...now I wanna shop on that site!

 

[cfisher]

@ Lowe A lot of the Qoo10 shops are brand shops, which usually charge retail prices and then do specials here and there. With that being such an impossible to find product, I wonder if what you saw was their own shop? I just wish we knew how much it sold at places/on sites that don't charge obscene retail prices. 

Definitely better grab one before it jumps back up to $100+ on the Memeshop though. Regardless of the fact that I doubt people usually pay retail on it, I doubt we'll see it for less anywhere online. 

Here's hoping it's great...But not TOO amazing.  :lol:

Yes I've ordered that product also but it hasn't arrived yet.

Bit bored of the Memebox site at the moment....there's nothing new.

 

[Alidolly]

I've a bottle of the dermakey but haven't tried it yet. It does look like the elixir in "Death Becomes Her" when the bottle is shaken which is pretty cool!

Stupid dog was up at 4am then again at 5.50am so hubby is not a happy bunny as he got up to see if he was ok (he's prone to ear infections and think he might have one starting). Woke Kirsty up so she's grumpy too this morning...gonna be a LONG day!?!

I have been reading this forum for a while, and finally made an account.

I keep refreshing my email hoping for something from memebox about new boxes. But I realize now I didn't even get the December VIP email confirming my VIP status, have any of you guys gotten one already?

No I haven't but then I don't care any more because there's nothing to be a VIP for.

No I haven't but then I don't care any more because there's nothing to be a VIP (I>for</I>.

so true, no new boxes and the last few new boxes not even a VIP discount

 

[theori3]

Down to 59 CPM2 boxes... which is good news, but I'm quite worried that Black Friday boxes 4 and 5 will be mostly items from CPM2!

 

[crazysweet]

I am staying up waiting for the Dirty Gal spoiler and a little hope of a new box.

DIRTY GAL!!!!!!

Why do I keep forgetting it's coming today?

I don't even care if Memebox releases a new box tonight, Dirty Gal will save the day!  :wub:   :wub:   :wub:

(Okay, I lied. I do still want a new box.  :lol: )

 

[veritazy]

Morning from Europe!! How isit page 180x already?! Woo..milestone.

I hope we get a new box too. Points shouldn't sit so long.. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Xmas boxes perhaps? Pretty please? :3

 

[thelavalampgirl]

Maybe they're saving new boxes until the new year? It's a bit too late to do a Christmas box when it probably won't ship until afterwards?

On a sidenote, I'm loving standard shipping being super quick between Korea and France (all of my orders seem to go on the same Air France flight to CDG) and practically crawls at snail pace between Paris and the UK. Move faster, damn you...

 

[Alidolly]

Wonder if Claypatra salt & clay mask will be in the Cleopatra box as would fit with the theme...

No hair salon or dirty gal spoilers yet? Was hoping someone downunder would have posted them by now..

 

[veritazy]

I do wonder too, @thelavalampgirl. They did the TG and BF pretty close to the date and we mostly got by express anyways. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I don't think they will pass up on this opportunity. Just hopefully they are not thinking of putting in any CPM, the "stocking fillers". Eek!

@@Alidolly many ladies cancelled I read. I wonder if they will put it back on restock in time to ship out together! I would pick up some now that boxes are pretty absent..

Guys!

I went to the post office today thinking I was getting my wtf+wc but it actually turned out to be my global #17 LOL

I know everyone got their #17s ages ago but now that I have it in my hands I'm actually quite happy with this box :3

The lip palette is the perfect Christmas present for my little cousin and I'm keeping the rest hehe :3

Sorry for the double post, but did they remove the option to withdraw commission as memepoints?

The amount I want to withdraw is less than $30 but I don't see where I can change the method... O___O
